Displaying Ports And Protocols; Configuring The Routing Protocols And Vlans - Extreme Networks ExtremeWare XOS Guide Manual

Using Virtual Routers—BlackDiamond 10K Switch Only
Adding a protocol to a virtual router does not enable that protocol. You must then specifically enable
and configure any protocol that you add.
To add a protocol to a virtual router, use the following command:
configure vr <vr-name> add protocol <protocol-name>
To remove a protocol from a virtual router, use the following command:
configure vr <vr-name> delete protocol <protocol-name>

Displaying Ports and Protocols

You display the ports, protocols, and the name of the protocol processes for a virtual router by using the
following command:
show virtual-router {<vr-name>}

Configuring the Routing Protocols and VLANs

Once the virtual router is created, the ports are added, and support for any needed routing protocols is
added, you can configure the virtual router. To simplify configuring the user virtual routers, the concept
of a virtual router configuration domain was added (instead of adding a virtual router keyword to
every command in every routing protocol). Virtual router commands are applied to the current
configuration domain. The virtual router commands consist of all the BGP, OSPF, PIM and RIP
commands, as well as the and commands. Other commands apply to the
create vlan delete vlan
switch as a whole.
To enter a virtual router configuration domain, use the following command:
virtual-router {<vr-name>}
For example, to enter the configuration domain for the virtual router helix, your CLI session would look
similar to this:
* BD10K.13 # virtual-router helix
* (vr helix) BD10K.14 #
The CLI prompt displays the virtual router configuration domain.
Use the command with no virtual router name, or use the name VR-Default to return
virtual-router
to the default configuration domain.
Now you can create VLANs, using the following command:
create vlan <vlan_name> {vr <vr-name>}
If you do not specify a virtual router in the command, the VLAN is created in the virtual
create vlan
router of the current configuration domain.
NOTE
All VLAN names and VLAN IDs on a switch must be unique, regardless of the virtual router they are created in. You
cannot have two VLANs with the same name, even if they are in different virtual routers.
